I found this and serveral other plants in thrown out in someones trash one day. I stopped wanting to get the nice planters but decided to repot the plants that were shriveled up and dying in new pots and a year later they are very happy and growing nicely.

Everyone who comes over wants to know what this one is because its so cool looking. I am assuming its some type of succulent or cactus but not thorny.
